CHICAGO May 31.--A most important meet
ing Of the managers of the Northwestern rail-
roads was held to-day, and on its results hung
the question as to whether there a bitter
war to be wsged among the lines in the West
and Northwest, whether the pipe of peace
was to be smoked and harmony prevail. The
Chicago, Burlington e. Northern has been
threatening for the past two months that on
June it would withdraw from the association,
and, on that date, cut the through rates between
Chicago. Minneapolis and ST. Paul one-half. The
Chicago, Milwaukee q st. Paul announced that
if the threat was carried out, it would in turn,
cut the rates to Omaha in the same proportion.
If the two lines had carried this proposed
programme it meant complete Decentralization
of both through and local rates throughout the
West, and loss to the interested roads in earn
ings of $50. 900 day. The BurlingtonN& North
ern would undoubtedly have carried out its
threat had not the Burlington. which controls it,
forced it TO back down from Its position, which
it did at to-day's meeting. the Burlington 81
Northern with other lines. agreeing to keep the
present rates in force from and after June l,
subject to fifteen days notice of the desire the
part of any line to change.

points In some instances the fare is reduced TO
one and a half cent per mile
The rate war in the Northwest has the ap-
pearance of an early settlement The Burling
ton d Northern. the chief disturber. has con-
sented TO postpone any separate action In the
matter of merchandise rates until after June g.
The Coshocton q Southern stockholders are
considering the question CT increasing their cap
ital stock and building their extension to Zanes-
ville then the entering into traffic agreement
with the Cleveland & Canton road. establishing
a new line between Cleveland and GAINESVILLE.
The New York Mercantile Exchange has re-
quested the freight lines which bring perishabe
goods to that market TO hold over until the fol-
lowing Monday all refrigerator cars which are
not unloaded before IL o'clock Saturday night.
The lines will comply with the request, and
to the icing of the cars gratis.
The St. Paul Pioneer Press, of Sunday last,
publishes the revised rates of some of the roads
running out of St. Paul, and they show a reduc
tion of 20 per cent agricultural implements,
as compared with the rates of one year ago, and
of 90 per cent. compared with the rates pre-
valling last year on merchandise. such as sugar,
canned goods, soap, and other heavy groceries.
A bill will doubtless be passed by the Legisla-
ture of Connecticut before il adjourns for the
removal of grade crossings. The bill before that
legislative body requires that go of the more
dangerous crossings be removed at the rate of
per cent and not over 10 per cent a year The
railroads must pay at least 40 per cent. of the
cost ana - per cent aOultlOnal IOr eacn L per
cent. of dividend paid: that road like ths
New York e. New Haven, which pays 10 per
cent. dividends, would paw 20 per cent. of the
cost of the work and the State the other 80 per
cent.
